This is a really great HRM watch and the GPS unit works great. I did a lot of reading on the various models and found this was the one that provided the most and newest features. The heart rate monitor seems pretty accurate and it allows you to run with a virtual running partner to help you keep your pace. The GPS works just about anywhere so far, incluing most of the river valley. My only real complaint is that the prices are WAY too high here. Costco sells it for $100 less (under $250) and you can often pick it up same day.[....]
